I was mentioned in The Pennsic Independent on-site newspaper, in an article about the annual known world Arts and Sciences Display.

Ishiyama-roku-I Gen’tarou Yori’ie of the kingdom of Æthelmearc displayed a selection of braided cords in the style known as kote-uchi, a Japanese technique similar to fingerloop braiding only recently rediscovered a few years ago but documentable to period. “This technique had been lost to general knowledge—it was often a ‘family secret’ as it could bring in a lot of money particularly given how much cording would go into Japanese armor. The technique can use up to 15 cords if done by one person, even more if done by two or more.

The print edition also had a photograph of me demonstrating.
